Victor Meier, 90, was called home to His Savior on Saturday evening, January 14, 2012, at Kenosha Hospital and Medical Center. He was surrounded by his loving family. Born on August 27, 1921, in Havelock, NE, to Frederick and Marie (Kahm) Meier, he was educated in local schools and worked hard with his family on their farm.

On July 17, 1948, he married the love of his life Mary Ruth Norris. They were happily married for over 58 years. Victor was employed as a welder for the Eaton Corporation, Dynamatic Division for over 25 years. He was a faithful member of Bethany Lutheran Church. He was also an avid golfer for over 70 years. Victor was a kind and gentle man, who was also very humble. Victor leaves behind his children, Pamela (Frank) Zenzola and Cary L. (Dawn) Meier, and his three loving grandsons, Joseph Victor, Alexander Paul, and John Francis. Preceding him in death, besides his wife and parents, are his five brothers, Robert, Herman, Edward, Harold, and Wally, and two sisters, Linda Kramer and Emma Schnell.
